I've done some testing in setting both the account code and the CDR user 
field, but neither of them are being transferred between the two 
machines over the IAX2 link.

Is there any way of setting a variable or some such thing and having it 
transfered over the IAX2 link? I've thought about playing with the 
CallerID field which we're not really using at the moment, but we 
probably will in the future.

Any ideas?

Cheers
Darryl
